Design Complex Machinery. See Your Ideas Built.

We're recruiting on behalf of a growing engineering and machine-building organization specializing in custom manufacturing equipment for customers across North America.

This opportunity is ideal for a Mechanical Design Engineer who enjoys designing real-world machinery from concept through commissioning, rather than making small revisions to existing products.

You'll work on custom roll forming equipment, automation systems, material handling equipment, and integrated manufacturing solutions while collaborating closely with engineering, manufacturing, and project teams.

If you're looking for technical variety, ownership, and the opportunity to see your designs come to life, this could be the role for you.

  • Diverse automation and machine-building projects

  • Work closely with manufacturing and project teams

  • Stable and growing organization

  • High level of engineering ownership

  • Exposure to automation, robotics, and material handling systems

  • Long-term career growth opportunities

What You'll Be Doing

  • Design custom machinery and equipment for roll forming and manufacturing applications

  • Develop complete mechanical designs from concept through release

  • Create detailed engineering drawings and manufacturing packages

  • Perform engineering calculations and design validation

  • Support design reviews and engineering change requests

  • Collaborate with manufacturing, suppliers, and project teams

  • Specify machine components, pneumatic systems, hydraulics, and automation elements

  • Support equipment assembly, testing, and commissioning activities

What We're Looking For

Required

  • Mechanical Engineering Degree

  • 5+ years of Mechanical Design experience

  • Strong machine design background

  • Experience with SolidWorks or similar 3D CAD software

  • Experience creating manufacturing drawings and GD&T documentation

  • Strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles and calculations

Preferred

  • Custom machine building experience

  • Roll forming equipment experience

  • Material handling systems

  • Automation systems

  • Robotics integration

  • Pneumatic and hydraulic design

  • FEA and mechanical analysis experience

Ideal Background

Candidates coming from the following environments are strongly encouraged to apply:

  • Custom Machine Builders

  • Automation Integrators

  • Material Handling Equipment Manufacturers

  • Robotics & Automation Companies

  • Roll Forming Equipment Manufacturers

  • Packaging Machinery Manufacturers

  • OEM Industrial Equipment Manufacturers

Technologies & Equipment

  • SolidWorks

  • Mechanical Design

  • GD&T

  • Automation Systems

  • Material Handling Equipment

  • Pneumatics

  • Hydraulics

  • Robotics

  • FEA Analysis

Apply Today

If you're a Mechanical Design Engineer who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges and wants to work on custom machinery projects from concept through completion, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.
